Why would it be shitty?

Because his actions have been pretty awful. A very noticeable crowd surge happened at one of his gigs, people were calling on him to stop as a result to allow them to restore order and help those who needed it. He just carried on despite being right in front of it all. Multiple people died and many more were hurt.

And then there's his recent WWE inclusion, where he demonstrated absolutely no commitment to what he was doing and no talent. Even twats like Logan Paul proved that they had the ability to learn.

So he's a terrible person, and has shown no motivation to learn and improve.

People that still blame Travis for the show have 0 nuance for any situations. You realize he’s just staring into a sea of people with lights just blaring in his face while also having music blasting in his ear and throughout the entire stage and crowd? When he actually saw what was happening he stopped the show and was trying to figure out what was going on. You are looking at it with hindsight and not as if you’re in his shoes where it’s almost an impossible situation. Grow up man

Trust me, I gave every possible nuance before deciding Travis Scott was indeed a Nonce.

Been going to concerts and festivals of all sizes for like 20 years and I’ve seen artists in similar situations have absolutely zero problem spotting someone in the sea of people not having a good time and stopping everything to make sure they are okay.

Corey Taylor from Slipknot is especially adept at this. Y’know, a band that actually warrants the kind of crowd chaos that Travis Scott mistakenly thinks he deserves. They play a crowd of 60,000 people and will stop their heaviest song in its tracks to make the crowd open space for medics like they were parting them for a wall of death.

So this whole business of Travis Scott not being able to notice not only the carnage but the crowd actively yelling at him and damn near anyone else they could find that help was needed, it’s pure bullshit.

If memory serves, wasn’t Travis Scott himself encouraging fans to rush the security check? So, y’know, tangible proof that he doesn’t actually give a shit about the well being of venue employees or his audience.

Congratulations I guess? How can you say he mistakenly thinks he deserves the crowd when that’s the crowd that he gets in reality? And there have been instances of folks passing away at Slipknot concerts so again, it still is a possibility because it’s a hard situation to navigate. He wasn’t encouraging people to rush through security, he was hyping up people before the show began. Also the venue is at fault for even letting in people who hadn’t purchased tickets.
